Holidays in Spain

Spain Holidays – The original UK package holiday destination
Spain is the original UK package holiday destination and a destination of great variety. The whole of Spain’s east coast comprises various Costas or lengths of coastline. There are several airports serving this side of Spain: Barcelona for the northern resorts and Alicante, Malaga and the smaller Gerona for more southerly destinations. Holidays in Spain offer a great variety of holiday deals and a great variety of hotels: among others you will find cheap deals, late deals, all inclusive holiday deals, self-catering apartments and family holidays. You can find pretty well all these deals mainly for summer holidays and some for winter sun holidays.

Holidays in Spain – Amazing beaches all along the Spanish Costas
All Spanish resorts are warm and sunny. The southern Costas (Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca and the lesser known Costa Calida) are that bit hotter than the northern ones (Costa Brava, Costa Dorada, Costa Almeria), but most resorts can be considered all year destinations – summer holidays and winter sun holidays – and some visitors prefer the greater tranquillity obtained from winter holidays. Most of them have remnants of the old fishing villages that they started from, usually with the resorts built along the coast from the original village. There are a high proportion of Blue Flag beaches; a real effort is being made by Spain to bring all beaches to this standard. The majority of the main resorts have golden sands running down to a blue sea.

Spain Holidays – All inclusive and self-catering accommodation options
When you search for holidays in Spain you’ll find out that all the big resorts offer all inclusive accommodation and have water-sports on the beaches along with beach facilities – parasols, sun loungers – to make beach life very acceptable. Those visitors who make the effort to take a bus or walk along the coast will find quieter coves. Of course, there is always the option to choose an apartment or a hotel with self-catering facilities. Some of the biggest waterparks and theme parks in Europe are found along the Costas, which make for many fun and memorable moments.
